History
On October 20, 2006, it was announced that CBS had picked up the show for a full 22-episode season.[1] CBS announced on May 16 2007 that Shark would return for a second season.[2]In Shark's second season, it moved to Sunday night at 10:00 p.m., switching timeslots with Without a Trace and thereby competing against another highly-rated series, ABC's Brothers & Sisters. In Canada, Global had also picked up Brothers & Sisters, so they decided to keep Shark on Thursday 10 p.m. timeslot, 3 days ahead of the CBS broadcast (except for the Season 2 permiere), and Brothers & Sisters for their Sunday night 10 p.m. timeslot.
